Samhain 2015 Pooka's Page for Grownups With our last issue, Liliane Grenier who creates the marvelous coloring pages for you was also on the verge of producing her latest creation - a new baby! Wee Simon has been born and now Liliane is taking some well- deserved time off with this totally adorable new member of her family. So, we hope you'll understand why her page from last year is a repeat. We think you'll enjoy coloring it all over again. But, just in case, Carolina Gonzalez, who's done some of our favorite coloring pages in the past, happened stepped forward with a new one for this issue. Just as in our last issue, when Christine was unable to do her Rune column and so many of our Team suddenly appeared with rune articles of their own, sometimes it seems magical the way things work out. Thanks, Carolina. Your intuitive timing was, as always, perfect! And, speaking of help, Carmen had plenty when creating her Ritual page for this issue. Her young nieces, Gina and Catie, ages 10 and 8 respectively, were visiting and very excited to take part. In fact, they actually wrote the invocations themselves! Afterwards, they were heard explaining to another aunt that " Samhain is another name for Halloween and it is not just about candy and masks; it’s about sweet memories of people and pets you loved." Truer words were never spoken... Pooka, the Team and I all join in wishing you a magical Samhain filled with both treats and sweet memories. Lora Also known as: Halloween, All Hallow’s Eve, Shadow Fest, Night of Remembering Samhain (pronounced “Sowain” or “Sowhen”) means the “end of summer” and harkens back to the days of the ancient Celts when the year was divided in two parts – the warm half, or “summer”. It is a “between” time when communication with the spirits is much easier and many forms of divination are used. Many Pagan families set aside a night for remembering ancestors, family, friends or pets that have crossed over to the Summerland.

It quickly slammed shut again and boots pounded down the hallway. She closed the oven door and called out, "Hi Nathan!" She turned just as the boy appeared in the entry to the kitchen. He was grinning from ear to ear. "Where's Pooka?" he demanded. "Out playing with Edgar the Crow," said Elsie. "Why?" "Because I have a great idea!" Nathan plopped down at the table. "You know how every Samhain Pooka gets all jumpy and starts looking for places to hide? He's afraid of ghosts! So, I was thinking you could just put a protection spell around the cottage and then he wouldn't be scared!" "But, Nathan..." Elsie began. "No, really! You're a powerful witch. You could do it!" exclaimed the boy. Elsie tried again. "But, Nathan..." He stopped her with a shake of his head. "It would be easy. I saw this movie where these kids used a ring of salt to protect themselves from.... well, in the movie, it was from witches. But I bet it would work with ghosts! You could just put a big ring of salt around the outside of the cottage!" Elsie leaned back against the kitchen sink and folded her arms. "That would kill the plants in my garden," she told him. "Oh." Nathan stared at the floor glumly for a moment, but then quickly recovered his enthusiasm. "Well, I bet you know lots of protection spells that won't kill the plants!" "Of course I do," Elsie said. Nathan jumped up from the table. "Let's get busy then! It's almost Samhain ..." "But, Nathan..." "Elsie! If there's Anything we can do to help Pooka feel safer, we need to at least try! And I'll help you." The little witch looked at her friend's earnest face and smiled. "Okay. Let's go to the Herb Room." On their way, Elsie had made a quick detour into the parlor and grabbed a spool of red thread from her sewing basket. "What's that for?" asked Nathan. "You'll see," said Elsie. Elsie's Herb Room was at the back of the cottage. There was a dutch half door at one end that opened onto the garden and another door at the other end that led in and out of the cottage. It was this latter door that they used now. Once they were there, Elsie pulled a large glass jar from the shelves that lined the walls. "Rowan twigs," she told Nathan. "Sacred to the Goddess and very Magical for protection. What I want you to do is take some of the twigs and break them into equal lengths. Then use them to form a pentagram." "I can do that," nodded Nathan. "Then bind it with the thread, wrapping it nine times around each joint or connection and then tying each one with three knots." "Why so many?" Nathan asked. "Wouldn't just a few times do it?" "Numbers are very magical," the witch told him. "The numbers 3 and 9 are also sacred to the Goddess." Nathan went to work on the pentagram. As he did, Else lit a white candle and some incense and placed them both on the wooden work table. When he was finished, the witch cast a circle of power, then held the little rowan pentagram high in the air with both hands. Solemnly, she recited: Rowan Tree and red thread Hearken to the words now said Protect our cottage from all bane And do this in the Lady's Name. "What does 'bane' mean?" asked Nathan. "Something that can hurt you," Elsie told him.. She then continued her chant: Three times three, the threads are wound Three more times, the knots are bound, Against all ill, Against all fear, That only Good may Enter here. "What do you mean: "ill". This isn't anything to do with Pooka getting sick," objected Nathan. "It's an old term that means anything bad," Elsie said impatiently. "Now, stop interrupting!" Thus the spell is spoke by me And as I will so mote it be. "Okay, that felt pretty strong," said Nathan after Elsie had taken down her circle. "It made the hairs on my neck stand up." Elsie handed him the Rowan pentagram and said, "Now, hang this over the outside of the front door." Just then, Pooka bounded through the open top half-door from the garden. He leaped onto the table and greeted them cheerfully. "Hi! Whatcha doing?" "We just made an amulet to protect you from ghosts this Samhain," said Nathan proudly. The cat sat and cocked his head quizzically to one side. "Why?" he asked. "Because you're afraid of ghosts," Nathan told him. "No, I'm not," said Pooka. Nathan held up his hand. "Now, Pooks, it's nothing to be ashamed of. Lots of people are afraid of ghosts." "I'm not a person. I'm a cat," Pooka pointed out. "And ghosts don't bother me. I like ghosts!" Nathan looked at Elsie with raised eyebrows. "I tried to tell you," she shrugged. The boy scratched his head and asked, "Well. if ghosts are okay, then what does have you running around and hiding every Samhain?" Pooka looked a little uncomfortable and decided this was a good time to wash the base of his tail. "Trick or Treaters," he mumbled into his fur. "What?!" Nathan exclaimed. "But those are just kids in costumes! And you LIKE kids!" "Yes, but when they're in costumes and pounding on the door and yelling, they're really scary!" Nathan sighed and said to Elsie, "I don't suppose you have anything for Protection against Trick or Treaters?" The little witch nodded. "I just give them treats!" she grinned. Samhain Breakfast Samhain morning deserves a special breakfast, right? How about Pumpkin Pancakes with hot Cider Syrup? You'll probably need a grownup to help you make this, but it will be worth it. It's one of Pooka's favorite treats! Pumpkin Pancakes In a large bowl, stir 2 cups flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 tsp baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 2 teaspoons cinnamon, 3 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice, and (optional but yummy) a handful of chocolate chips. Then, dump into a blender: 1 1/4 cups pureed pumpkin, 1/3 cup brown sugar, 1 egg, 3 Tablespoons oil, and 1 1/2 cups whole milk. Blend it on high for about 45 seconds until combined.

  • Knot Symbolism
    Witch's Knot Posted by Silver Sunday, January 5, 2014 at 5:28 PM http://nordicwiccan.blogspot.nl/2014/01/witchs-knot.html There are many different types of magic knots, all of which have their own uses and their own history. In Pagan Roman times, couples would tie a knot while make solemn vows to each other and their gods during their wedding ceremony, which is where we get the phrase 'tying the knot'. The Witch's Knot, also known as the Witch's Charm or Magic Knot, is comprised of four interlocking vesica piscis-shapes. The knot can also be found with a central circle. The vesica piscis is a shape that is the intersection of two circles with the same radius, intersecting in such a way that the center of each circle lies on the perimeter of the other. The name literally means the "bladder of a fish" in Latin. The shape is also called mandorla (almond in Italian). The pointed oval sign, the vesica piscis, has also been called the Vessel of the Fish. "Fish" and "womb" were synonymous terms in ancient Greek delphos. Its link to fertility, birth, feminine sexuality and the natural force of women was acknowledged also by the Celts, as well as pagan cultures throughout northern Europe. The Great Goddess was portrayed elsewhere with pendulous breasts, accentuated buttocks and a conspicuous vaginal orifice, the upright vesica piscis. Christians later adapted the symbol as their own for Ichthys, fish. A circle is a simple shape of geometry that is the set of all points in a plane that are at a given distance from a given point, the centre.

  • The Path of the Witch Booklet 1
    The path of the Witch booklet 1 The path of the Witch Book of Shadows writings The path of the Witch booklet 2 Foreword My Book of Shadows I put this general booklet together for I know that one has to sit hours working on the internet or spend time reading through plenty of books to get information. So from the groups I belong to I gathered some information I deemed important and created this booklet to help the one who is new to the traditions of the Witch. Please note that I have not added any spells in this booklet for that is a personal aspect which you will develop on your own. Note that this booklet is just a summary and not a complete guide to Witchcraft. Use this booklet only as a basic place or stepping stone from which to grow. If you want to go deeper into every aspect of this path I advise you to buy the books I mention at the end of the booklet in the reading list. These books are complete in every aspect. You can also enlist in the following two schools, or any other school, which will help you on your path: www.witchschool.com and do the Correllian degree courses www.magickaschool.com and do the Progressive Witchcraft degree courses Please note this booklet is an algamation of information extracts from a variety of internet sites and groups, and some from books I read. I do not take credit for the written words (Except Method 6 of circle casting) herein as all the knowledge about the path was already written and I felt that written works do not need a change in wording or otherwise – the message are already in the words written.

  • Lesson 9, Hedge Witchcraft
    Lesson 9, Hedge Witchcraft Well, this is it, the lesson about the typical person's concept of the term "witch". They think of the woman standing around in the black robes, with a bubbling cauldron over a fire, stirring it with a spoon, brewing some sort of esoteric potion. If they are charitable they may think about Ceridwen, who brewed a cauldron of Inspiration and Science for her son, until Taliesin accidentally got the benefits of that potion. They may think of the Witch of Endor, who advised King Saul in some matters and had a "familiar spirit" to tell her what was going on. They may think of the Burning Times, and how so many hundreds of thousands of people were killed in the hysteria. They may think of Salem Massachusetts where 26 people were put to death for being witches, and hundreds more were accused, and confessed to being Witches. Here's the rub, however, there were no witches in Salem, only one lady practicing her native religion and a lot of political infighting. The Burning times were not about witchcraft so much as about rooting out heresy in the Catholic Church, along with political and financial gain. (The witch finders got a percentage of the property seized when a witch was executed.) I know some of you may know this short history lesson, but for those who are not familiar with the facts, it's necessary to state this again. Witchcraft developed out of several traditions. Margaret Murray proposed in her essay "The Witch Cult in Western Europe1" and further revised in "The God of the Witches2" that there was a cult of witches who had been practicing in secret since prehistoric times.
